The home where Napoleon lived in exile from France from December 1815 to his death in 1821.

We are part of a cruise ship shore excursion to this out the way place in the world. The house where Napoleon spent his exile years is a top reason for even visiting St. Helena. The docents set up for our day visit were very knowledgeable. Made you feel like you were actually visiting the home during the era. Beautiful gardens, nice gift shop. Because we were a cruise ship in town, the locals even had extra souvenir tents set up on the grounds for the t-shirts, hats and stamps many people want. Be aware, no photos were allowed but there were postcards and books for sale. Bring British Pounds or Euro to spend if you are not using credit cards.

This narrow set of 399 steps is the only path out of the seaward end of Jamestown.

A deceptively hard climb, and even harder descent! A must-do if you visit the island though. The views are wonderful. It's difficult to imagine how it ever got built!

I had to keep going back to this amazing museum, there is so much to read about that was so interesting from the first settlers through to recent Saints who sailed around the world. A fascinating insight into the people and the island's rich history, a must for any visitor

I went with a group of friends on our day off and wow. We walked from bottom to top and it’s just incredible. The views are breathtaking and so is the hike to the top. Very steep in some places so wear proper shoes. And take plenty of water. History of it all is amazing and the crabs haha you’ll never see anything like it. Worth a visit if your there.
